[0036] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0037] Example 1
[0038] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a connection structure between a vacuum cleaner and a vacuum cleaner base station, comprising:
[0039] The vacuum cleaner main unit 1 has a dust cup 11 on it, an air inlet pipe 12 on one side of the dust cup 11, and a rotatable cover 111 at the bottom of the dust cup 11.
[0040] The vacuum cleaner base station 2 is provided with a connecting pipe 3. The connecting pipe 3 is detachably installed on the vacuum cleaner base station 2. The end of the connecting pipe 3 is provided with a plug groove 31 for engaging the dust cup 11. The bottom surface of the plug groove 31 is provided with a dust discharge channel 311 corresponding to the cover plate 111. A bayonet 32 is provided on one side of the plug groove 31, and the air inlet pipe 12 is engaged in the bayonet 32.
[0041] The vacuum cleaner base station 2 is equipped with a connector 21, and the connecting pipe 3 is inserted into the connector 21. The dust discharge channel 311 is connected to the vacuum cleaner base station 2 through the connector 21. The connecting pipe 3 is equipped with a first locking plate 33. The locking tongue of the first locking plate 33 passes through the side wall of the connecting pipe 3 and is fastened in the slot 211 on the side of the connector 21.
[0042] The air inlet pipe 12 is provided with a boss, and a second conductive spring 121 is provided on the boss. The insertion slot 31 is provided with a second conductive contact 312 corresponding to the position of the second conductive spring 121.
[0043] The vacuum cleaner base station 2 has a first conductive contact 22 on its top surface, a baffle 23 on one side of the first conductive contact 22, and a first conductive spring corresponding to the position of the first conductive contact 22 on the connecting pipe 3. The connecting pipe 3 also has a groove corresponding to the position of the baffle 23. This allows the vacuum cleaner base station 2 to be electrically connected to the vacuum cleaner main unit 1 via the connecting pipe 3, thus charging the vacuum cleaner main unit 1.
[0044] The shield 23 effectively protects the first conductive contact 22, preventing it from deforming and breaking, while also improving the connection strength after the connecting tube 3 is inserted.
[0045] A second locking plate 112 is provided on one side of the dust cup 11, and a second slot 314 corresponding to the second locking plate 112 is provided on one side of the insertion groove 31. Two parallel partitions 315 are provided within the second slot 314. When the vacuum cleaner main unit 1 is engaged with the connecting pipe 3, during the insertion of the second locking plate 112 into the second slot 314, the partitions 315 press against the second locking plate 112, causing it to rotate and unlock the cover plate 111, thus opening the dust outlet for dust removal. After the vacuum cleaner main unit 1 disengages from the connecting pipe 3, the second locking plate 112 returns to its original position under the action of the elastic element on its back.
[0046] Working Principle: After use, the vacuum cleaner main unit 1 is placed on the vacuum cleaner base station 2. The dust cup 11 is engaged in the insertion slot 31 of the connecting tube 3. Utilizing the negative pressure suction generated within the vacuum cleaner base station 2, the cover 111 of the dust cup 11 rotates and opens, allowing the dust inside to enter the vacuum cleaner base station 2 through the connecting tube 3 and the connector 21. The vacuum cleaner base station 2 is heightened by the detachable connecting tube 3 to accommodate the overall height of the vacuum cleaner main unit 1 after the floor brush is connected, solving the problem of large size and high center of gravity in existing vacuum cleaner base stations designed to match the overall height of the vacuum cleaner. When disassembling the connector 21, pressing the first locking plate 33 causes the locking tongue of the first locking plate 33 to retract and disengage from the slot 211, after which the connecting tube 3 can be pulled upwards. Releasing the first locking plate 33 causes it to reset under the action of the elastic element on the back. The connecting tube 3 allows for quick installation and removal, facilitating the storage of the vacuum cleaner base station 2 and cleaning.
[0047] Example 2
[0048] Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment further improves upon the following technical solutions: symmetrically arranged guide plates 122 are provided on both sides of the boss portion, and guide grooves 313 corresponding to the guide plates 122 are provided on the insertion groove 31, thereby improving the connection quality between the vacuum cleaner main unit 1 and the connecting pipe 3 and preventing the second conductive spring 121 from detaching from the second conductive contact 312.
[0049] Example 3
[0050] This embodiment further improves upon the above embodiment by providing the following technical solution: a rubber gasket ring 316 is provided on the bottom surface of the insertion slot 31. The rubber gasket ring 316 is used to ensure the sealing performance when the vacuum cleaner main unit 1 and the connecting pipe 3 are engaged, thus ensuring the dust removal effect.
[0051] Example 4
[0052] This embodiment further improves upon the above embodiment by providing the following technical solution: a raised rib 212 is provided on the side wall of the connector 21, and a guide slope is provided on the top of the raised rib 212. This improves the deformation resistance of the connector 21 and facilitates the secure insertion of the connecting pipe 3.
[0053] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
